Kukla's Korner Hockey

Now they get to finally move forward, past the opening-season grind and into some sense of normalcy, both in their hockey lives and regular lives.

A taste of that came Wednesday when the Rangers got to experience their new digs at the Garden for the first time. The reviews were tremendous.

“It looks amazing,” Marian Gaborik said of the new dressing room, which is now complete with a full workout room, something that did not exist in the old Garden.

“It’s a little bit disorganized trying to figure out where we come in and where we go out, but they did a great job,” Callahan said. “It’s awesome in here. There is so much more space. It’s high-tech and it’s more fan-friendly now, with a little more access to us. We’re excited to be back here, back at home, and start playing on home ice again.”
